If I were to model a steel pontoon, which supports should I assign to represent the uplift force from the buoyancy in respect to seawater?
Thank you.
I am using Staad Connect. Is it correct to use fixed but support and release all except Fy?
I was wondering if the concept of soil bearing capacity support (inserting stiffness value at support) can be implemented?
What software are you using? We would recommend Moses for such a thing, but I'm guessing you don't have a license for that.
